Green Bay loses receiver to COVID-19 list

The Green Bay Packers cannot catch a break as they continue to deal with a rash of COVID-19 Cases within the clubhouse. On Tuesday, the team announced that they are placing wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling on the reserve/ COVID-19 list.

Valdes-Scantling helped the Packers defeat the Baltimore Ravens in last week’s Sunday night primetime matchup 31-30. Green Bay’s speedy receiver had one of his best games of the season against the Ravens. He caught 5 catches for 98 yards and one touchdown.

With the announcement coming on Tuesday, it is unlikely he will be cleared in time to play in the Packers’ upcoming game against the Cleveland Browns. However, there is some hope after the new NFL protocols have made it easier for players to return from the reserve/ COVID-19 list.

The Packers will face the Browns at home in a Christmas Day matchup. The game will be a Saturday afternoon game scheduled to kick off at 3:30 PM CDT.

Mayfield recently slammed the NFL for COVID-19 protocols

The NFL recently changed protocols after the spread of COVID-19 grew worse across the league. Following the league’s changes, Mayfield took to Twitter to share his brutally honest thoughts.

@NFL Make up your damn mind on protocols. Showing up and making only 3 teams test?!? All so you can keep the game as scheduled to make money,” Mayfield tweeted on Thursday night in reaction to the league’s sudden changes to their policies due to a widespread outbreak throughout multiple teams.

“Actually caring about player safety would mean delaying the game with this continuing at the rate it is…. But to say you won’t test vaccinated players if they don’t have symptoms, then to pull this randomly. Doesn’t make any sense to me.”
